Fly Me To The Moon

You tell me "I love you more than the moon!"
And I tell you that I'll be home soon.
Through monsoons and bassoons
Past Neptunes and fretful goons
I'm telling you that I'll be 89 still trying to make you swoon
Here comes the bride and groom! Vroom, vroom
From the hotel to the Taco Bell
We sound well. Take a trip with me but we never fell
Fall off and jump out, what now?
Body got me yelling onomatopoeia: bladdow!
We're watching Rachel Maddow and how come
We never leave the bedroom? I haven't seen the sun
No clouds, no crowds, your heart pound and I assume
That cardio without the stereo can make Mario
feeling super over all. Just carry me through
All the tough calls and good shots, the clocks stop
My friends tell me "You got soft" and I said life dropped it's guard
and it ain't hard anymore. Open the door,
Honey, I'm home, and we're up until 4 in the morn
Doing what? Doing what?
It don't matter as long as you're up, yeah you're up
We can cuddle in the fort and that's enough,

That's enough, that's enough
That's enough, that's enough, girl
Fly me to the moon and back
And a matter of fact I know that I love you

Desperation and patience never go hand and hand
But I gotta hand it to you and face it, I'm like goddamn
and when I'm driving on the side of the curve of your lip
I'm gonna slip and crash and in fact
The swerve of your hips is making me wanna go fast
But slow me down, slow me down
Chop and screw me up and screw you down now
Oh wow, gotta keep some of my cards
But the chips are high and I'm gonna raise you hard
and if you're all in then so am I
and if I lose then you can just blindfold my eyes
We're the ocean, you're a wave, we are tidal
What is our title? Hold on, it will be a while
Check in for towels, I know you like my vowels
And Os for that matter
Cut the chatter
Turn the lights off
or on so we can see when we ignite bombs
Are we gone?
We're breathing and reading and believing in
chemistry and poetry we are just so calm because word is bond
Never just a couple of kids, never seen a hustle like this
All of this talking, all of this chatting, look at how we are batting
For a thousand and for the thousandth time we are fumbling
and coming together to make some magic and the passion
that we imagine makes a thundering applause so we react and
Take a bow and now a bow
you know that I quiver for you: I am your arrow

Guillotine

[Chorus]
Breaking necks
Breaking necks
so far that their heads fall instead
Breaking necks
Breaking necks
that you don't mess with our rep
Breaking necks
Breaking necks
your head spins 360 degrees
Breaking necks
breaking necks
call this shit the guillotine

[Verse 1]
Alas, the wunderkind of the under thin
Thunderin' lightning rhyming blunder sin
Snapback snaps backs: bend over!
More dangerous than playing Red Rover
Bolder or bogus. Dog you need to focus
I'm the best part of the morning like my man Folger's
Black button up and I'm shutting you down
Get astound at the professional status noun
making sounds like my heart and soul were found
rearranged, deranged in it's range to kaplow
Blowing up good, blowing up well
Water everywhere, tunnel lead straight to hell
Got there and everyone else bowed
The devil himself gave me his crown
said "You are way too hot, can you teach me how?"
Calm yourself and sit right now. I say wow!

Melodious, felonious
I go deli meat and they're all the baloney-iest
Phoniest phone in and phone in
their performances while I soak in
the moment and get distilled cause I'm potent
But notice the spotlight on this
cold kissed and hot shit
kid writing in his molskine
yes you know I really did wrote this

[Chorus]
Breaking necks
Breaking necks
so far that their heads fall instead
Breaking necks
Breaking necks
that you don't mess with our rep
Breaking necks
Breaking necks
your head spins 360 degrees
Breaking necks
breaking necks
call this shit the guillotine

[Verse 2]
Mischievous, suspicious with hands in the cookie jar
Look afar, look here, I read books for bars
Keep your guard up! I'm down with this movement
Cued like poolsticks, record is ruthless
Even if I'm boothless, Clark Kent/Superman
Turn up the knob from Alex Dang to Alex Super Damn!
Engineering, curing, and veering in all directions
Magnetic north compass home is my intention
Take the protection and shatter it dangerous
Is there any wonder why my last name has the same four letters? It's
fantastic, powerful, and very weak looking
Gig booking, high-fat cooking
Frying everything in bacon grease and steeze hooking
One of a kind.
No need for coffee. I'm on my grind
Espresso yourself is how I find peace of mind

Applause, applause, I hear it all the time
Either for my style of my divinity of rhyme
Of course, you shouldn't force the way I lift
I give direction to Atlas. Could anyone match this?

The reviews are in and the survey says
Elect this man to be our very next pres
Campaign and I'm so vain, get inside the Dang Brain
Bred differently: going against the grain

[Chorus]
Breaking necks
Breaking necks
so far that their heads fall instead
Breaking necks
Breaking necks
that you don't mess with our rep
Breaking necks
Breaking necks
your head spins 360 degrees
Breaking necks
breaking necks
call this shit the guillotine

Dollar bill, dollar bill, dollar bill
What my ancestors spoke about so many years ago
Dollar bill, dollar bill, dollar bill,
Throw the money on the flow and c'mon let's go
Because you don't even know
Drop gold bars on 16s
and let the self esteem grow
into something more solid
and polished like frozen snow
no, there isn't a chain that hang
low but know there is a supposed
meaning within the prose that goes
with the crows and the ravens and
the rest of those birds.
So let's get back to the regular measures
breaking down verses into smaller pleasures
so
I don't follow anything really any more
He's using that pound cake as a metaphor
He's letting it shine man, let him snore
We sleeping on this giant man, less is more!
From rupies, to rubles,
from mansions to two doors,
success is defined by the shit you own,
I'm still regal but frugal
Hear the bugles and trumpets
call out my name
It's a damn shame people can't switch lanes
Stuck in the fast with the foot on the gas
hoping that they can eventually pass
the guy in front who's doing the same so we're all last
first things first
I burst with immense thirst and hunger
I cannot be fed or quenched
so continue with the intense verse and thunder
Until this dude is dead or worse
Stuck in a 9-5
only just tryna thrive
We forget to survive
These passions keep me so live
so wide
such pride
I can't just spit an audience aside
my entire life is directed at you
Writing feelings that aren't necessarily true
Saying that I'm cold when I'm barely blue
Let the frame hang messily too
If the shoe fits than we mess with it too
C'mon man, stop nonsense steam of conscious
and just do something cool!
Alright.
I'll do that.
I'll start spitting real facts about deep rap
Until this almanac is all finished and the business
is how we can turn lies into a marketable platform
so damn storm: I'm being tempered
and rendered so this September
I'm entering a flow mode so prosperous
and monstrous that you'll understand
the dichotomy between Prospero and Caliban.
Damn that's properly being laid down
in a realer state than property. Probably.

99/100

[Verse 1]
Laying in my room trying to get thoughts out of my head
I'm out of my mind, she out of my league and I'm still in her bed
Never believed in miracles but I got proof of her existence
And in case you missed it, this miss would make you think that I'm gifted
Living in the present, passed the future on my way to work
I decided to write a song tonight and it will find a way to surf
Sink or float, I think in quotes,
This is ragged, ravaged, raw rhyme, ragging from out of my throat
In this boat, I ink the most
Flooding title pages with sages and mages yes I made it looking fresh inside of my coat
Skinny pants, stands half a chance, the dude is a beanstalk
Keep talk to a minimum as I walk then knock giants off
Heart full of feelings and a noggin full of healings
Things I like to shatter include records, fasts and ceilings!
Always eating something or other, the hunger is a world wonder
Louder than lightning, faster than thunder, if you like it: here's my number!

[Chorus] x2
It goes 12/25/1993
D-A-N-G exclamation point just for me

Gotta say things really excited
The fire has ignited
This is you getting reminded
Longer than just one-night-ed

[Hook]
99 problems but I keep it 100
99 problems but I keep it 100
99 problems but I keep it 100
But I'm really bad at math so you might just have to double it

[Verse 2]
Well excuse me for a while
You might like me for my style
But the thing is that I do to words
is what I do to her nice smile
I am feeling very fresh
I got myself a haircut
Rolled up cuffs on my ankles
Hipster swag: I don't give a fuck
This shit, is never enough
Toned down, heart is buff
Life is this, life is such
Lift off and the cups is up
And you already know I can rap this fast
But I like doing it because I liked flash
I really like glamour, I really like cameras
I'm picking you up like good antennas
Never gonna stammer, got good grammar
Things so hot, I gotta use the hammer
Asian boy bear it all, call this the panda
and this manner is to make you laugh
Make you grin, I'm honestly not trying to look at this from a win
lose stand point but I'm pretty much at this point all in
Mentioned the girl I liked in the midst of my bravado
Awkward arrows being shot out of all of my staccato
Driving to Taco Bell, girl you know me well
I will only be coming first if in front of you is a blue shell

[Hook]
I will race across with you forever on Rainbow Road
I will take the loss for you but clever like I'm on some code
I will shake the boss so you can never have to hit reload
You ask me when this started and you already know it goes:

[Chorus] x2
It goes 12/25/1993
D-A-N-G exclamation point just for me

Gotta say things really excited
The fire has ignited
This is you getting reminded
Longer than just one-night-ed

[Hook]
99 problems but I keep it 100
99 problems but I keep it 100
99 problems but I keep it 100
But I'm really bad at math so you might just have to double it

[Verse 3]
Double it, triple it, you know I'm so sick with it
We gotta brag about ourselves, this is Hip Hop isn't it?
The boast and confidence helped boost my own
And now look at me when I'm almost 20 grown
I survived a nasty break up, every morning I still wake up
And I'm staring at your face even if I messed up your make up
Put out a book of my words, went from static to verb
And it's so shocking that the talking around the water cooler is about this sir!
I like my poems like I like my words: spoken
And lately I don't relate as much to the adjective "broken"
And notice that I'm liking myself
And if not, I'm taking steps to better my shelf
Put your favorite things on my back and I'll keep them held
Keep them safe
1st, 2nd and 3rd, I'm feeling so BASED

5' 8"

[Verse 1]
When you listen to this, the tag is "honest song"
I'm about to be on my Rudy Francisco game strong
All my life I paint wrong and I still turn out pretty pictures
Vivid images of scriptures turned backward on their figures
I figured that the mixture of soul and heart would be enough
But it's all deeper than skin and my layer got rough
It's hard to get underneath the impenetrable armor
The honor of monsters grew intense and I'm looking calmer
With words that I desperately need to say lodged in my throat
I'm rushing through poems and feelings to get something to quote
Something really catchy that sticks inside your mind
I just want to reverberate and hope the burning may find
Kind hearted individual that single handedly creates a whole
Digging for buried treasures under pressure I will turn my cole
Into diamonds. Something I can recognize
Something I can be proud of when the lead resides

[Chorus] x2
I'm five foot eight,
I really wanted you
I like my soda cold and can you understand these particles?
One hundred twenty five
Look deeply in my eyes
This the type of shit that I will really, really need to write

[Verse 2]
Because I like holding you tightly until my arms hurt
Until breathing syncs up since nightly I see the harm's work
I get behind dreams. The nightmares still gleam
Shimmering beams of light surround everyone else it seems
I get down on myself but I can pull myself up straight
Now straight up tell me if you think this is great
Because my speech is clouds when I want to speak concrete
My reach is loud when I want to peak on beats
Never needed pity and was never good at gritty
I've got city running through my veins and rain water pretty
Are you with me? Or against me?
Don't tempt me.
Since I've had those things raging inside my mind until the time ran out and yet they still live there since the rent's cheap
So right now mentally, to put this less densely
I need start learning how to be present in this or else I might forget me.
Or maybe I should just forget me

[Chorus] x2
I'm five foot eight,
I really wanted you
I like my soda cold and can you understand these particles?
One hundred twenty five
Look deeply in my eyes
This the type of shit that I will really, really need to write

[Verse 3]
And what I needed to write is all the things I couldn't say
It's all the things that I need to say, day to day
And it might sound cliche, but hey
Maybe that's the game I have to play
So stay with me. I'd rather not have you leave
We'll get along famously. Just you and me
But it pains to see that this is what I knew would be
So plain to we that this might turn into what could be

I Am Here

So no one told you it would be this way?
That's okay, because today is our coffee break
The sun is looking like the right shade of
Fuck it, I'm going to relax, kick back and remember how to play
Since all us kids keep yelling out acronyms
But you know that we won't ever be back again
We're only moving forward, we're constantly in motion
Awesomely potent: we've retouched our motives
But do you notice how often we get down on ourselves?
Us incredible radiant beings doubting our hands dealt?
Where our fingers see fists more frequently
When really they need someone else's hand in between
Friendships are never sunk, sometimes we sleep in bunks
And we'll need a boost up so we can do the dunk
And I'm a little messed up, bruised and scratched up
But it's lead me here to you, us improbable match up
I'll be your backup and if you ever back up
I've got my back against your shoulders even when odds stack up
It's all looking wonderful in the right lens
It's all worth something in the right sense
Pinky promises and swearing like sailor's into the night
We keep our shoe laces and our hugs real tight
More adventures like Calvin and Hobbes and
More dynamic than Batman and Robin
I like what we have, I like what it will be
I just have to keep remembering that you also like me
Twilight in the park, this is the summer I want
Me and you, laying on your stomach and something in courier font
Because this is all poems in the end, isn't it?
I guess I don't really want to get too into it
I'm not stressing love, but let's just remember it does exist
I'm not pressing love, but let's live like December 25th
And I'm hanging on your every words like the curve of your lips
I'll never get tired of this

Gold Knuckles

[Verse Simile]
Back again like I left but tonight I right like civil movements
No improvement just a new influence on this lucid music
Fresher hair like Gohan go on? I prove it
And do it to the maximum like tomatoes. Who's this?
Link I think, this chink spills ink, drop winks
Blink once and lose for sure like mink. Complete like Zinc
Rhyming inviting so damn exciting
Contrast to the snoring, boring, I'm straight up frightening. Stifling?
Like I'm just tossing word salad? Well let me break it down like work with a callous
Malice and ballads swing down like fists and mallots. Too damn gallant
So you better enjoy my damn pallet: I'm in town. I get down.
I surf on the verse when I'm around and I astound.
This templar is the highest, flyest and still cloak and dagger dark
Bring your magnum because you claim that you are so damn hard
I'll show you shaken up spears. You should know that I fux with the bard
This beat and I sparred and in the end it got straight up marred

[Sample]
Now we gonna get down!

[Verse Linger Rhyme]
Gold knuckles with my Midas hustle
Asteroid belt around my waist and yet I never seem to buckle
Or shatter due to the weight of the content matter
I just flatter and get madder in order to appease these fucking bastards
Rappers are just poets with impeccable rhythm
This wisdom and courage and strength is already within him
Triforce in the hand is worth a thousand in the bush
I'm towering potential in every direction getting pulled and pushed
East to west and north to south whatever comes out of my mouth
Is the autobiography of what I am really about
No more chains around my neck I broke free from those shackles
I'm about to tackle, battle for my tale: no more tattles
Or rattles. I'm making death be afraid to come and get me
Stay steady and ready the cannons that will stand in heavy
If they let me I'll go until the words are no longer
Monsters growing stronger along with iron mongers that I sponsor
Watch me conquer and offer nothing to the opposition
In this position I've switched it from the original mission
No hate for a lover and no love for a hater
Yo, let me take a breath: Vader

{GASP}

[Verse Fast]
Can't even handle my syllables
Rhymes billable to the one that will kill a bull
Minotaur: subpar. His head on my wall
You feel like testing me? Let's go play ball
Never gonna fall, unbreakable Jenga
You are forgettable, call you xanga
Call you myspace, I call her Topenga
Always did the opposite, text is manga
What do I got a lot? Disappointment
But I'm going ham, there's so much oink kid
You want ignorance, I want more bliss
You got really rich, I'm in poor debt
Keep investing, I'm perfecting
This style is check, check, microphone testing
And I'm passing with flying colors
Who else does this? I am like no other

[Sample]
That's what I'm talking about!

[Verse Switch]
Slamming down, jamming sound, I am ramming nouns
Into the lush instrumentation basements so I can earn my crown
All of these fly girls are hanging on my every single word
Like my speech has handlebars but I handle bars so absurd
Smash through windows, keep this simple,
You can just blow me, classic Nintendo
In the end though, fresh like mentos
And I'm rising to the top like a fucking crescendo!
Elevator: penthouse. Right girl, left the blouse
Thoughts so hot, this spot just gotta douse
Never being left out, feel me: textile
Flip over your phone because that's me on your text now
You cannot afford to ignore this knocking on your door
Matador waving red capes since at the core this break will take more damn metaphors
I'm representing this primary that will vary
In preventing the lacking of necessary lines that are legen:

[Sample]
WAIT FOR IT...!

[Final Verse]
Honestly? I've always wanted to be dominating
These starter beats with authorizing, cauterizing harder feats
But I'm probably in way over my head, so instead of monopolies
being lead astray, today from now on I will shed
All the complexities and hit them with the fundamentals:
This instrumental lends itself to the soulful stencil and the truest pencil
Trace my silhouette and see the outline that outshines
The pirouettes across graceful steps. Yes, I'm about mine
Looking cooler and cooler and cooler after each sun cycle
Begin running circles around this music like your most fun vinyl
And even though I'm dealing with issues difficult
This makes the individual whimsical: able to reach his pinnacle
Starting to tone down and tone up, no loud and grow up
Sit down and focus on the bigger picture of "what now?" and "so what?"
Realizing what art is granting:
I am human therefore nothing human is beyond my understanding: thank you for understanding
